What's new?!

Well, here I am writing my first blog entry EVER. Isn't this cool? Ok, I was 13 there for a minute. I have to admit I never thought I would have a blog. When some people I knew a few years ago started blogging, I thought it sounded like a waste of time. Oh, what a change 10 years makes! I have always loved to write down my thoughts, in high school I was the "note" queen. Over the last few years writing has become a way I can find release. Up until now I have jotted down my thoughts on scraps here and there with the intentions of putting them all together in a notebook -someday. Finally, I realized THIS would be a good thing. So.....here I am. For the sake of annonimity I have decided to refer to myself as W3. <-- don't ask!
Now...drum roll please.....I will offically post my first entry......it will be called........
"My Tree"
My tree....my beloved tree....my faaaaavorite tree where I have taken a TON of pictures of all my babies, and of just the beautiful old tree itself for over 10 years now..... was brutally cut down this weekend! :) Seriously, I went over to my in laws, and my mother in law said to me..."W3, I have some bad news. I think the neighbor had your tree cut down yesterday." I about had a stroke right there in the kitchen. I literally ran down the lane (well ok, not literally) and sure enough they had hacked it all up like a bad horror movie!!! -Nightmare on ---- Rd.! Apparently the beautiful monument of nature had died over the winter. I stood there in the grass, and for a moment the birds stopped chirping, and the wind was still. Ok, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic -who me?
But the fact is my beautiful 'ol tree is forever gone. Living on only in my memory, and the millions of pictures I took........ :(

Memories.... from the corner of my mind....misty water colored memories of the way we were.....scattered pictures.......
